Chapter 1054: Only Through Effort Can Miracles Happen!

Although more and more people were being rescued, Tang Ye did not relax!

"There is still one person; we must keep searching downward.

Never abandon, never give up!

The person buried below is the pillar of a family.

Our efforts may not have a result.

But only by making the effort can miracles happen!"

"County Magistrate Tang, we will listen to you!"

"Right, never abandon! Never give up!"

The rescue team was encouraged, expanded the scope of the search, and worked even harder.

Time ticked away second by second, and everyone's mood became increasingly tense.

It would be dark in another half hour, which would increase the difficulty of the search and rescue.

Tang Ye remained undiscouraged.

He issued orders to set up scaffolding, run power lines, and provide lighting at the scene.

Just as the setting sun was about to be swallowed by the horizon, someone in the rescue team exclaimed.

"Found him, I see his hand!"

Tang Ye rushed directly into the pit and looked in the direction the rescue worker was pointing; sure enough, he saw a hand exposed above the ground.

"His fingers are moving, he should be fine. Everyone, put in a little more effort; victory is right ahead."

The rescue team accelerated the digging speed, and after about a few minutes, they finally dug him out.

Tang Ye saw that the last person had finally been rescued as well.

He felt the same way, having a sense of having survived a disaster.

He climbed out of the pit and instructed Li Yongan, "Everyone has been rescued. Next, you must provide medical treatment to all the employees; no matter how serious their injuries are, they must be treated. Additionally, provide them with financial compensation."

Li Yongan's eyes were full of admiration, "County Magistrate Tang, I will handle it according to your requirements."

Tang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, patted Li Yongan on the shoulder, and encouraged him, "Your reaction was quite fast, but your way of thinking and perspective on handling problems still need to change. When a major accident occurs, the lives and property of the common people are the most precious things."

Li Yongan said shamefully, "County Magistrate Tang, I indeed did many things improperly."

Li Yongan had witnessed with his own eyes that Tang Ye's entire arrangement for the rescue was reasonable and reliable.

If it weren't for applying for a professional rescue team from the city, it would have taken at least twice as long for the county's own rescue forces to dig out the lifeline.

More importantly, Tang Ye was very responsible and had the courage to take charge; this was what a county leader should look like.

At first, Li Yongan thought Tang Ye was very young and wondered if he would shift the blame onto him.

Now, he discovered that whether a person has the ability to handle pressure has nothing to do with age, but is closely related to whether their inner self is resilient enough.

Jiang Jing reported this matter to Provincial Governor Fu.

Provincial Governor Fu attached great importance to this accident.

Jiang Jing was currently waiting for the rescue results.

Finally, the cell phone rang.

After connecting, Tang Ye's voice came through.

"Mayor Jiang, all eleven buried people have been rescued. One person did not make it after receiving emergency treatment, and among the other ten, three have relatively serious injuries, while the other seven have minor injuries; all have been sent to the hospital for treatment."

Hearing that only one person died, the breath Jiang Jing had been holding was released, "Truly a stroke of luck within a misfortune! I told Provincial Governor Fu about this, and he is following the results. What do you plan to do next?"

Tang Ye pondered, "Yechuan County has been focusing on infrastructure construction in recent years, but it hasn't made sufficient preparations in terms of safety awareness. I plan to prepare to rectify construction sites throughout the county and strengthen safety awareness."

Seeing that Tang Ye had hit the nail on the head regarding the root of the problem, Jiang Jing encouraged him: "Your idea is correct. Using a point to influence the whole area is very good. You should contact Xiao Lu later to form a written report, stand from the perspective of the whole city, sound the alarm, and vigorously rectify safety hazards."

After hanging up Tang Ye's call, Jiang Jing first made a call to Provincial Governor Fu.

"Provincial Governor, the remaining ten people in Yechuan County have been successfully rescued. One person was hit in the head and was too seriously injured. After emergency treatment, they didn't make it. The others are not in life-threatening condition."

Fu Yagang breathed a sigh of relief, "Xiao Tang is indeed good at fighting tough battles. When I just heard you report this to me, I broke into a cold sweat for him."

Jiang Jing smiled, "His reaction was fast; he immediately called me to apply for the city's rescue team. His first reaction was to save people, not to cover things up to protect his own official position."

Provincial Governor Fu nodded slightly, "Tang Ye has demonstrated his adaptability through this incident. I believe the Yechuan County officialdom will recognize his ability, which provides a solid foundation for his subsequent governance of Yechuan County. By the way, regarding the death of Zhou Songtao, he still needs to pay attention to it. The Provincial Party Secretary attaches great importance to it and has mentioned it many times."

Jiang Jing nodded slightly, "Understood, I will instruct Xiao Tang."

After hanging up the call with the Vice Provincial Governor, Jiang Jing dialed the number of Municipal Party Secretary Gong Weimin.

"Secretary Gong, just received news that the people buried in Yechuan County have all been rescued. One died; we tried our best to save them, but couldn't."

Gong Weimin had been waiting for the results.

Only with the results could he report to the Provincial Party Secretary.

"Alright, being able to handle the matter like this can be considered not bad." Gong Weimin asked about some details and hung up the phone.

The County Party Secretary of Yechuan County had been in the city attending meetings.

The one responsible for coordinating and handling this was the newly appointed Tang Ye.

Gong Weimin knew Tang Ye's resume; he was a young cadre who performed excellently in cross-provincial cadre exchanges.

However, he still broke into a cold sweat for Tang Ye; placed in the complex Yechuan County, it would be difficult to gain a firm foothold without some governing ability.

But clearly, he had underestimated Jiang Jing's eye for talent.

Youth was Tang Ye's disguise.

Jiang Jing had arranged a highly capable Acting Chief in Yechuan County.

Tang Ye dialed Han Zhengyi's number.

"Secretary Han, reporting the situation at the scene to you: eleven people were rescued, one of whom died after emergency treatment failed, while the others are not in any life-threatening danger."

Han Zhengyi was currently rushing toward Yechuan County and said with a sense of relief, "That is great. I will report this good news to Gong later."

Because it was quite late, the neighborhood office had arranged dinner; everyone had been too busy saving people to feel hungry, but now Tang Ye felt so hungry his stomach was sticking to his ribs.

Tang Ye had Ma Ran get him a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun, which he ate with some salted vegetables stir-fried in lard.

He felt that at this moment, even the most delicious delicacies in the world could not compare to this.

At this time, not far away, an interview vehicle stopped at the intersection.

A female Reporter jumped out of the vehicle holding a microphone, followed by a tall man carrying a video camera.

The two of them walked in the direction where Tang Ye was!

The Reporter happened to see Tang Ye squatting on the ground eating porridge and salted vegetables and hurriedly urged the cameraman, "Quickly capture this scene."

The cameraman hurriedly opened the lens and recorded this scene.

After the filming was finished.

The Reporter came before Tang Ye and softly introduced herself,

"County Magistrate Tang, I am Tian Xiaomeng, a reporter from the News Girl program team. I would like to interview you, would that be alright?"
